Yeah, that's NOT going to happen...unless I manage to hijack Santa's sleigh and fly myself to some remote island sans elves. You know, because there's always THAT option.
No, it doesn't look like my ambitious little deadline will be met (since I'm still a good 20,000 words from where I'd like to be). But you know what one of my New Year's resolutions actually is?
BEING MORE FLEXIBLE!
So let's see, where does that leave me?
Finished novel? nope (and 99% sure that I won't finish by New Year's)
Packed for vacation? nope
Christmas shopping done? nope
Am I okay with all of that?
YEP.
I will be out of blog mode until sometime after the holidays due to limited internet access. So in case I don't talk to you until then, I hope you all have a beautiful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Happy Christmas and Merry New Year's to you too! Love your resolution. I'd like to be more gumby like as well. :)
ReplyDeleteTake a break and enjoy your holidays. Have a very Merry Christmas and New Years! Remember, Gumby was only make believe. :)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful holiday and that's a great resolution. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, I loved gumyby. Weird lookin'...but loved him. These are the days pre-agent when we can do that.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Christmas!

Flexibility is a good thing. And just so you know, I don't have any of those things done either. (I wanted to finish my manuscript by November 30 and I'm still not even halfway there).
ReplyDeleteYou probably won't read this for a few weeks but I gave you an award today. :)
Don't beat yourself up. Quality writing takes time, right? Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful vacation!! And a Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWhy is it that when I am ready to get back to blogging, everyone else is gone? I agree that being more flexible is a great goal. Only, I just made a nearly impossible New Year's writing goal, so I guess I am going to have to remind myself about the whole flexibility thing later. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, I didn't see you specify which New Year you were going to have your MS complete, so I'm assuming it was for 2011 and you are way ahead of schedule.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a terrific 2010!
